Cannot access photo library

I have a new iPad3g which I have synced to my iMac G5. I have elected to sync photos from my Aperture. When I touch the photo icon I get the message "Please Wait Updating Library" accompanied by the spinning wheel. The problems is it never updates and after a minute or so it reverts to the desktop page. Has anyone had this problems and what is the solution?

Interestingly, when I go to settings,brightness & wallpaper I have the opportunity to open photo library and there are all my photos from Aperture so the images are stored in iPad but it is not possible to access them through the main photo application

  • Dropbox cannot access photo library

    Accidentally, I denigned Dropbox access to my iPod Photo Library and now I cannot save a Dropbox image in it.  Is there a way to reset Access to the Photo Library?
    Thank you,
    Todd

    If you are on iOS 5 like it says above go to settings location services and turn the switch to on beside the app.
    If you are on iOS 6 go to settings privacy photos and turn the app Dropbox to on

    How to attach photo (from Iphoto) to i.e. email or facebook??  cannot access Iphoto library...

    Hi...
    Open Mac Mail. From the menu bar top of your screen click Mail > Preferences then select the General tab.
    Select which email address you want to use to share photos on Facebook or email from the pop up menu next to:  Default email reader:
    Launch iPhoto. Select the photo then from the iPhoto menu bar click Share > Email or Share > Facebook.

  • I have macbook pro w existing iPhoto library. Now have Canon printer and loaded Canon software for same. Cannot access iPhoto library from Canon software, but prints fine from iPhoto. How can I use iPhoto library w Canon software?

    I have a macbook pro w exisitng iPhoto library. I now have Canon printer and loaded Canon software for same. I cannot access iPhoto library for use from Canon software. I can print from iPhoto directly to new printer without problem. How can I use iPhoto library with Canon software? I would like to try the software to see which I prefer...

    Simply export some photos from iPhoto to a folder on the desktop and experiment.
    Without telling us even what this program is, not to mind what it does, that's the best anyone can suggest.

  • I have suddenly become unable to access photo library  iPhoto (vers 9.5) on my external drive.  And time Machine will no longer back up to the same external (LaCie) drive.  Appreciate all suggestions.  The drive does show up on my desktop....

    I have suddenly become unable to access photo library (iPhoto vers 9.5) on my external hard drive.  Also time machine isnt backing up to same external hard drive (LaCie).  The drive does show up on the desk top, but when i open iPhoto the library isnt listed, so I cant option click.

    First, one should not try to run an iPhoto library from the same volume/drive that is being used by Time Machine for backups.  TM will continue to fill up the drive thus squeezing out iPhoto from being able to be opened and used. Also that doesn't allow you to let TM backup your library as it does with other files on your boot drive.
    If you partition the EHD into two separate partitions you can run the library from it but that won't let TM backup the library which is important.
    Are you able to see the library on the EHD via the Finder?  If so copy it back to your boot drive and open it there.  You may have to do some fixing on it.
    Solution is to either run the library from the boot drive or get a second EHD to run the library from and let TM back it up along with your boot drive.

  • Tried to update my itunes and it says "iTunes installed incorrectly" now i cannot access my library

    tried to update itunes and it says after download "iTunes installed incorrectly" now I cannot access my library.....HELP!!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • Error Message - "Aperture cannot access this library"

    I'm using OS 10.5.7 and Aperture 2.1.3. I recently had an error message pop-up when I try to start Aperture that says, "Aperture cannot access this library. To use this library, make sure its file permissions are set correctly." Unfortunately, I can't seem to open up my library. Any ideas how to fix this or what is wrong? Thanks

    Hello,
    attached I would like to report how the problem solved.
    1. I had 63 Minute Call to Apple Support and we are tring some things. Finally I Spend spend 1 day for testing.
    2. Testing procedure:
    A) I exported each project step by step
    B) Than I deleted all appr. 50 projects in Aperture Library.
    C) After that I Imported each project to Aperture back.
    Result: 2 Project was corrupted, one of it was going well after export/import procedure how ever but the second ones error was constant appearing if I try to import it. The project consisting of 512 jpg files in total appr. 500MB.
    The solution for this project:
    I moved this jpg´s to waste bin und imported it from waste bin to Aperture again into a new project. Than I tested it again(Export/import) and it was fine.
    For final check I delete my Aperture backup und start a new one.
    Than start a compleate restoring from that last backup.
    Every thing was fine, all project include albums or books are ok.
    The pictures in the corrupted project was not imported by Aperture, they was created on a PC system(XP). Maybe that was the reason for the problem.
    A friend sad, that windows use not the agreed standard for jpg´s.
    I don´t know. So I´m happy all my books are back that is imported for a wedding photographer.
    Have fun

  • Cannot access photos in photo stream folder

    PS Touch on my iPad iOS 8.2 cannot access photos in the photo stream folder.  They appear as blank boxes.  Why?  The photo stream folder contains photos that are shared across devices.  The photo stream folder appears in the app but when opened blank boxes appear where the photos should be.  After doing a search, I see this has been an ongoing problem for other users & uninstalling/reinstalling does not fix the issue.  The workaround is to copy the photos into Camera Roll then import them from there.  Does Adobe plan to address this issue in a future update?

    Hey there earnest007!
    I have an article here for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue with your iCloud shared photo streams:

  • I cannot access Content Library in iMovie - Content Library doesn't show on the iMovie screen and is greyed out when accessed through "windows" tab at the top. Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question).

    I cannot access Content Library in iMovie - Content Library doesn't show on the iMovie screen and is greyed out when accessed through "windows" tab at the top. Also unable to update the projects/events (a suggested solution for a similar question). I haven't had this issue before, I have always used the content library on the screen but haven't used this for about a month. How can I make the Content Library available?

    Thanks so much! I am backing up the entire computer now with an external hard drive - this should be fine right? And surely if I am backing up the whole computer these projects/videos will be backed up too? I wasn't sure how to do this any other way and I am clearly not great with tech issues. Once this is done and I am sure my projects/videos are safe I will do the delete and reinstall bit. Thanks for taking the time to help

  • HT4477 Can't open any pictures or access  Photo Library.

    Can't open any pictures or access Photo Library.

    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
    - Did it ever work properly?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
    With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
    Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" mean that any helper is simply guessing. More information means you get better assistance.

  • HT1941 I have inadvertently changed a file permission setting. When opening Aperture I get the following; Aperture cannot access this library. To use this library make sure it's file permissions are set correctly. I am an old dude new to Mac OS. What up?

    I have inadvertently changed a file permission setting. When opening Aperture I get the following; "Aperture cannot access this library. To use this library make sure it's file permissions are set correctly". I am an old dude new to Mac OS. Looked in settings but have no idea how to allow file sharing to myself. I have been using Aperture actively for 6 weeks. I'm the only one using this Mac. What up?

    Back up all data now.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. You can demote it back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
    sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
    Be sure to select the whole line by triple-clicking anywhere in it. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2
    Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
    When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar. A text window opens.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    resetpassword
    That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

  • Users cannot access Document Library althouth they have Edit permissions

    Hello,
    I have a strange SharePoint 2013 case, or at least it's strange to me.
    Users from the company cannot access a Document Library although I've granted them Edit permissions. The Inheritance from the parent have been broken, all inherited groups have been removed and all users have unique permissions to this library. Here is the
    setup:
    Web App -> Sub Site A -> Sub Site B -> Sub Site C -> Sub Site D -> Library
    So these users have Read access from the Web App down to Sub Site B. They cannot see Sub Site C and D because these sites are also with broken inheritance and unique permissions. But I've granted Edit permissions for these users to the Library.
    If I assign View permissions for these users to the Sub Site D then they can upload and edit documents in the library, but still cannot see Sub Site C which was my intention anyway. Again i don't want them to see Sub Site D either, but if i remove the View
    permissions they can't access the library.
    On SP 2010 this was not an issue. I'm not sure if here the permissions are different or not, but I've never seen such issue before.
    Any ideas will be much appreciated. I hope the explanation is good enough to describe the issue.
    Many Thanks in advance.
    Ivo

    Hi Ivaylo,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the user with only Edit permission on the library cannot access the library.
    I recommend to check if the Limited-access user permission lockdown mode feature is deactivated in root site.
    If it is not, deactivate it and then test to see if the issue still occurs.
    To deactivate the feature, please go to the root site > Site Settings > Site collection features > deactivate Limited-access user permission lockdown mode.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

    Using mountain lion operating system, downoaded iphoto 9.4 update, aperature 3.4.3 update and still cannot access photo stream.  now what??

    With Aperture, you should be able to use Photo Stream now, but you need iPhoto 9.4.2 > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1608
    After updating iPhoto to the latest version, open System Preferences > iCloud and tick Photo Stream. Finally, you will have to turn on Photo Stream on iPhoto and Aperture choosing Photo Stream on the sidebar of both programmes
